fn:toLowerCase() – JSTL Function

Last Updated: December 1, 2013 by Chaitanya Singh | Filed Under: JSTL

This function converts a string into lowercase string. Any upper case character in the input string is replaced with the corresponding lowercase character.

Syntax

String fn:toLowerCase(String  input)

Return type: String; Argument: Single argument of String type.It returns a String after converting the input string to lowercase.

Example 0f fn:toLowerCase()

In this example we are applying this function on two strings – one is a string variable and another is a hard-coded string which is given as an argument to the function. As you can see in the output that it has replaced the variable’s value and hard-coded string value to lowercase. Screenshot of the output is provided just after this code.
